Entrance Exams

Most graduate and professional schools require your scores on at least one standardized test for admission. Typically getting a minimum score is required for consideration for a program, but getting that score does not guarantee admission. We encourage you find out about the “average” test scores of people admitted to a program you are interested in.

Types of standardized test

Graduate Record Exam (GRE) – most commonly requested for master’s and doctoral programs.
